ISO 23277:2006(E) Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with 1SO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 ‘The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards, Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibilty that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. [SO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 23277 was propared by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CENITC 121, Welding (as EN 1289:1998 and its Amd.1:2002 and Amd.2:2003), and was adopted, under a special “fasttrack procedure’, by Technical Committee ISO/TC 44, Welding and allied processes, Subcommittee SC 5, Testing and inspection of welds, in parallel with its approval by the ISO member bodies.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 23277:2006(E) Non-destructive testing of welds — Penetrant testing of welds — Acceptance levels 1 Scope ‘This International Standard specifies acceptance levels for indications from surface breaking imperfections in metallic welds detected by penetrant testing. ‘The acceptance levels are primarily intended for use during manufacture examination, but where appropriate they can be used for in-service inspection ‘The acceptance levels in this International Standard are based on detection capabilities that can be expected when using techniques specified in ISO 3452 and parameters recommended in Annex A. The acceptance levels can be related to welding standards, application standards, specifications or codes, Such a relationship is shown in ISO 17635 for ISO 5817 and ISO 10042. 2 Normative references ‘The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

ISO 23277:2006(E) 32 non-linear indication indication having a length less than or equal to three times its width 4 Testing parameters 4.1 General Many parameters, either individually or in combination, will affect the shape and size of a penetrant indication produced by a weld imperfection. ‘The following items are significant factors that will affect the shape and size of indications. 4.2. Sensi ity Penetrant materials are classified in accordance with ISO 3452-2, including a sensitivity level which relates to the ability to detect small imperfections. Generally higher sensitivity materials should be used for the detection ‘of small imperfections. 4.3. Surface condition Surface condition is directly related to the minimum detectable imperfection size, Best results are normally achieved when inspecting smooth surfaces. Surface roughness or irregularities (. g. undercut, spatter) can ‘cause high background and non-relevant indications resulting in a low probability of detection for small imperfections, 4.4. Process and technique Penetrant systems and techniques should be selected according to the test surface condition. In some cases the choice will have a direct effect on the limits of reliable detection, for example the removal of excess penetrant by swab cleaning on rough surfaces is not recommended when seeking small imperfections. Guidance on these matters is given in Annex A and in ISO 3452 5 Acceptance levels 5.1 General ‘The width of the test surface shall include the weld metal and the adjacent parent metal up to a distance of 10 mm on each side. Indications produced by penetrant testing do not usually display the same size and shape characteristics as the imperfection causing that indication. For the purposes of this standard, itis the size of the indication which should be assessed against the values shown in Table 1 Acceptance levels prescribed for linear indications are those corresponding to the evaluation level. Indications lower than this shall not be taken into account. Normally, acceptable indications shall not be recorded. Local grinding may be used to improve the classification of all or part of a test surface when itis required to work to a higher detection limit than that recommended by the existing weld surface condition in Table A.1 Acceptance levels for welds in metallic materials are given in Table 1. 2 (© 180 2006 — Al sights reserved UNIEN 180 23277-2010Documento contenuto nel prodotto SALDATURE edizione 2013.

Howe the probatlty of detection of indleaions smaller han those denoted by the aga acceptance love can be low. 5.2 Evalu ion of indications. Initial evaluation shall be carried out as described in ISO 3452 and final evaluation of indication size shall be carried out after a designated minimum development time has elapsed, and before the indication has degenerated such that it no longer represents the causing imperfection. 5.3. Grouped indications ‘Any adjacent indications separated by less than the major dimension of the smaller shall be assessed as a single, continuous indication Grouped indications shall be evaluated in accordance with an application standard. 5.4 Removal of imperfections Where the product specification permits, local grinding may be used to reduce or remove imperfections which are the cause of unacceptable indications. All such areas shall be re-tested and evaluated with the same penetrant system and technique.
